Timeline
Inez Moore Tenenbaum (born March 8, 1951) is an American lawyer and politician who served as South Carolina Superintendent of Education and as chairperson of the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
Tenenbaum was born in Hawkinsville, Georgia, obtained a Bachelor of Science in 1972 from the University of Georgia, and a Master's in Education two years later from the same university.
She received a Juris Doctor degree from the University of South Carolina, Columbia in 1986, where she was an associate editor-in-chief of the South Carolina Law Review.
Originally a public school teacher, Tenenbaum entered state government as an employee of the South Carolina Department of Social Services.
She later served as the director of research for the Medical, Military, Public and Municipal Affairs Committee of the South Carolina House of Representatives.
She practiced with a private law firm, Sinkler & Boyd, P.A. from 1986 to 1992, in the areas of health, environment, and public interest law.
Tenenbaum was elected State Superintendent of Education in November 1998 and re-elected in November 2002.
She focused her administration on six key initiatives to fuel education progress in South Carolina: raising the academic bar and embracing accountability for student academic progress, improving teacher quality, providing quality early childhood education for all children, supporting strong and effective school leadership, promoting safe and healthy schools, and increasing parent and community involvement.
During her tenure, the South Carolina General Assembly approved a $750 million school bond legislation for K-12 school construction and renovation, with local districts leveraging the bond amount to raise the total to $1.75 billion.
More than 140 new schools were built under the act, using a combination of state and local voter-approved bonds.
The state's SAT scores increased 34 points over eight years (1999-2007), the largest ten-year gain in the nation.
"Quality Counts" ranked the state first for improving teacher quality in 2003 and 2004, and number two for teacher quality improvements in 2005 and 2006.
Tenenbaum was the Democratic candidate in the 2004 election for retiring Democrat Fritz Hollings's seat in the U.S. Senate; she lost to Republican nominee Jim DeMint.
In 2005, following parental complaints, Tenenbaum removed Chris Crutcher's book, Whale Talk, from the state's English reading list for middle grades.
She was featured in an interview by John Stossel for a 20/20 Special Edition about public schools in the United States and world.
Tenenbaum defended South Carolina's progress, noting that the state was rapidly narrowing the gap between its students' test scores and the national average.
By the end of her term in 2007, South Carolina was a key leader in the nation in education improvement.
Five independent national studies—by the Fordham Foundation, Princeton Review, the Large-Scale Assessment Study, the Northwest Evaluation Association, Quality Counts, and Education Next, —indicated that South Carolina's standards for student academic proficiency under No Child Left Behind were among the most rigorous in the nation.
During her tenure, South Carolina's performance on the National Assessment of Education Progress (NAEP) showed top rankings for improvement:
Standard & Poor's identified South Carolina as an "outperformer" on NAEP for consistently achieving above the statistical expectations.
The 2007 national report card "Quality Counts," published by Education Week, ranked the state first in the nation in academic standards, assessment, and accountability.
Tenenbaum was succeeded as Superintendent of Education by Democrat Jim Rex on January 10, 2007.
On May 5, 2009, President Barack Obama announced that he would nominate Tenenbaum to head the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission.

In October 2010, Tenenbaum announced a five-year strategic plan (2011–2016), which established a new mission and vision for the Commission.
Also in 2010, under her leadership, the CPSC made the Office of Education, Global Outreach, and Small Business Ombudsman to facilitate outreach to domestic and international stakeholders, including manufacturers, retailers, resellers, small businesses, and foreign governments.
It ranked 11th in efforts to connect K-12 education with early learning, higher education, and the world of work.
In 2011, the CPSC opened the new National Product Testing and Evaluation Center (NPTEC), testing products for defects and developing methods to determine compliance with safety standards.
In October 2011, the CPSC led the first North American Consumer Product Safety Summit with Canada and Mexico.
In March 2011, it launched the publicly available Consumer Product Safety Information Database, SaferProducts.gov.
In 2011, it implemented a Risk Assessment Methodology (RAM) pilot project that to analyze data available in Custom and Border Protection's International Trade Data System (ITDS) to target potentially violative products coming into the United States.
